# String A sequence of Unicode codepoints. You can iterate over the grapheme clusters of the string using a [for loop]($scripting/#loops). Grapheme clusters are basically characters but keep together things that belong together, e.g. multiple codepoints that together form a flag emoji. Strings can be added with the `+` operator, [joined together]($scripting/#blocks) and multiplied with integers. Typst provides utility methods for string manipulation. Many of these methods (e.g., `split`, `trim` and `replace`) operate on _patterns:_ A pattern can be either a string or a [regular expression]($regex). This makes the methods quite versatile. All lengths and indices are expressed in terms of UTF-8 bytes. Indices are zero-based and negative indices wrap around to the end of the string. You can convert a value to a string with this type's constructor. # Example ```example #"hello world!" \ #"\"hello\n world\"!" \ #"1 2 3".split() \ #"1,2;3".split(regex("[,;]")) \ #(regex("\d+") in "ten euros") \ #(regex("\d+") in "10 euros") ``` # Escape sequences { #escapes } Just like in markup, you can escape a few symbols in strings: - `[\\]` for a backslash - `[\"]` for a quote - `[\n]` for a newline - `[\r]` for a carriage return - `[\t]` for a tab - `[\u{1f600}]` for a hexadecimal Unicode escape sequence ## Constructor ### `str` Converts a value to a string. - Integers are formatted in base 10. This can be overridden with the optional `base` parameter. - Floats are formatted in base 10 and never in exponential notation. - Negative integers and floats are formatted with the Unicode minus sign ("−" U+2212) instead of the ASCII minus sign ("-" U+002D). - From labels the name is extracted. - Bytes are decoded as UTF-8. If you wish to convert from and to Unicode code points, see the [`to-unicode`]($str.to-unicode) and [`from-unicode`]($str.from-unicode) functions.
